Description

`The Modern Theologians' is a two-volume introduction to the main Christian theologies of the twentieth century, combining discussion of these movements with analyses of the thought of particular theologians. Each chapter is written by a leading modern theologian based in Europe or North American, and aims to give a clear picture of a particular theological movement or individual theologian. In so doing, the contributors also aim to further the critical debates surrounding the various contemporary theologies.
